I woke up, as the last bite of the mosquito broke the chain of my zizz.
It was pretty hard to fall back to the sweet wave of ecstasy i derived earlier from my slumber. As i stared upwards in my room it felt i was encompass by the strength of darkness all around me, quickly flashes of phantasmagoria passed my head about how i imagined the world to be and how it’s not.
I laid on my bed restless so i decided to sit up.
I remember each time i pass by the beggar at the gate of my school and how she screams at me ‘ Uncle! please help me’
I remember then how little i have done and how little i had impacted my generation.

Thoughts of how ‘myself’ has come first before anything, what i want to be, what i have to become after a formal education in a professional program, then my mind asked what about the people in the bottom chain of the society do they have dreams, aspirations, and deserve all the good things of life too?
I was quick to dismiss and i said to myself God will provide for them even i had not gotten my dreams in my hand.

How easy it was for me to conclude, i had not gotten the ‘Boxed life’ young people in my age group wished for, so there’s nothing i can possibly add to help anyone.
Those in need would just have to look up or somewhere else to get a miracle about their predicaments.

It wasn’t long i felt a numbness like a load of a hundred tons had been resting on my head, quickly a fast motion air hit my face, my mind began to sing a song out loud about how He turns the bitter into sweet, the song played louder then my heart began to beat in synchrony with the melody, i tried to stop it but i couldn’t, so i let it control me.

So i don’t go into all the details, its true i alone can only impact a small niche of my environment but together,
you, me and the rest of the world there’s so much we can do for those in need, those who need this help, those who can’t afford a dime. Am not talking about the people who pretend to use begging to get excess to their plenty, am talking about those who struggle to even feed themselves, am not talking about people who are practically lazy about life.
we don’t all have the same opportunities so lets leave those routine Sundays or make them worthwhile, those routine weekend of fun, and reserve a time we pull ourselves together and reach out to as many people we can empower on the street and wherever with our little resources which would be humongous if we all put it together.
Think about it, how much can a single person can give to someone in need that we last for a long time if they’re not empowered, that’s why they will always be there when you pass the street everyday after giving them money the previous day.

Funny, people we call circular and often discredit have this passion for African and have been doing a lot to help out since anyone can remember in terms of power, food, etc.
Jay Z, while he visited children living without clean water in Angola and South Africa during his worldwide tour in 2006

The documentary mixes their stories with statistics that 1.1 billion people have no access to clean drinking water, and more than 4,000 children die every day from diseases related to the problem.

Akon- i was a little over-saturated,” says the singer, reclining on a couch in the London hotel in New York on a recent spring morning. “Everywhere you went, you heard me. Radio, TV, you name it. It got to the point where I just wanted to experiment more, and do what I always wanted to do: really do a lot more international stuff.”

As Akon toured abroad, he found that one of the biggest obstacles toward earning money was the lack of electricity—many of the countries where he wanted to tour simply didn’t have the infrastructure to support the sort of big concerts and festivals he was used to playing in the states, particularly after dark. So he teamed up with fellow Senegalese-American Thione Niang and Malian entrepreneur Samba Bathily to create Akon Lighting Africa.

The initiative now touts staggering progress in the movement to illuminate a country where millions remain without power: 100,000 solar street lamps installed across 480 communities in 15 countries, along with 1,200 solar micro-grids and 5,500 indirect jobs created. It’s been a novel approach compared to previous efforts in Africa, most of which focused on setting up 20th Century electric infrastructure.
I could go on and on with what these other people are doing to help Africa out of it’s problems
Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, and so on.

Let’s take a break from the activities, the rush about achieving so many things and love others not just in words, not just loving those who can help us back, not loving those we see in our homes or classrooms, not just trying to having the best life for ourselves, but to empower people with our ideas, resources, and compassion.

there the old men sit and brood

for the world as they knew it ceases to be

It is no more a place for the free
The lush of green have all vanished

and our consciences,been banished

Mother nature has turned her back

On her inhabitants,their hearts so dark
Gunshots and missiles fall like rain

more blood than the ground can drain

more corpses than the earth can swallow

love for humanity, all the more shallow
Tribes,nations,cultures,religion

Sleep is sweet, food is sweeter, but the gift of living is the most beautiful thing in the world. Many will disagree due to the circumstances all around us, the war, the hatred, anger, killings, terrorism, social vices. That is very true but what about the moment when we smiled at the beauty all around us, when we looked to the stars and wondered how everything came to be and so perfect, what about that time when a single smile from the one you love make all your sorrows all go away for a moment, what about the time when the believe in a higher realm that gave you the reality of your existence and saved you. Scientist says one of the characteristics of the brain is to dwell on the negativity all around us. But psychologist proves that dwelling in life with a positive mental attitude can radically change the aura around you. Yes! Things go bad, but sometimes it goes good too. Yes! War comes, but sometimes there is tranquility, yes! People hurt you, but you smile sometimes, yes you’re broke, but sometimes you have plenty, and most times the world is a crazy place but let’s fight for our freedom and happiness. We deserve that much in this crazy world. Live in the moment forget the politicians, forget the terrorist and all others, we’ll take them one after the other. Most importantly concentrate on being yourself and happy with all the madness around you. Live for today!

As i sat at the corner of my bed Reminiscing about my life and all the tough decisions i had to make.
then i said to myself this one life, this one gift should have been for two or three or four people to use and not me alone.
decisions of steps to take in life, marriages, jobs, the future and so on spurs my head like an over inflated balloon. it all seemed like every step i take would have been better taken or shouldn’t have been taken at all.
maybe this would have been better or that would have been better or those.. i wondered as they piled up in my head making me feel exhausted.
my mind sighed…. tired of all the thoughts i was trying to process all at once. up till now i am yet to come up with a solution to all my thoughts. maybe i need help from a higher power, maybe i need help from a psychologist maybe i need help from someone who has felt all this before the fact is i need help.
Should i have joined the group or waited till i can form mine and make a name,
should i have dated a girl now or waited till I want her for a wife, should i have taken the job now or waited till i rounded up my degree.. should i have done this or done that becomes something i have no final solution to.
……….RENAISSANCE…….
MAYBE ALL OUR DECISION IS JUST A SMALL PART OF ONE BIG PICTURE AND ALL WE CAN DO IS JUST LIVE WITH WHATEVER DECISION WE MAKE. HOPEFULLY THEY HELP OR NOT BUT ACCEPT THE CONSEQUENCES FOR THE IMMEDIATE HASTY OR NO HASTY STEPS WE TAKE.
hoping and praying all goes well in our lives as we desire the best of everything.
